Synopsis

Set your holiday table with tradition and warmth. Ten award-winning chefs dismantle the stereotype of Irish cuisine being a boil, a fry, or soda bread. Highlighting fresh, local, and seasonal ingredients from provinces across the Emerald Isle, this beautiful, photo-illustrated collection offers inspirational Irish recipes.

An Irish meal must nourish the soul as well as the body, teasing each of the senses. Home cooks are invited into each featured chef's restaurant and/ or home to experience recipes that utilize fresh fish, lamb, beef, pork, fruits, and vegetables, and of course, Ireland's renowned cheeses.

Starred-studded contributors include Kevin Dundon (host of PBS's Kevin Dundon's Modern Irish Table), Darina Allen (founder of the Ballymaloe Cookery School), and Neven Maguire (celebrity chef and TV personality).

Celebrating the new Irish food culture, this compilation emphasizes local resources, simple fare, and the highest standards, proving that Ireland is a modern food destination.

Foreword
            This book is both a tribute to and a celebration of the island of Ireland and the exceptional contemporary culinary landscape. Ireland today is a paradise for epicures.
            Ireland is known throughout the world for its warm, friendly welcome, magnificent landscapes, vibrant towns and villages with music-filled pubs, and something delicious at every turn. Come and see for yourself, immerse yourself in its rich heritage and culture, and let your imagination take flight.
            Ireland’s UNESCO Heritage sites offer a look at a fascinating history and culture. The 5,000-year-old Newgrange passage-tomb in Ireland’s Ancient East predates the Egyptian pyramids by as many as 500 years. Visit one of Belfast’s oldest attractions—St. George’s Market, which has hosted a weekly market since 1604, an authentic foodie haven with more than 248 stalls overflowing with gorgeous produce. See the Giant’s Causeway, along the Causeway Coastal route in Co. Antrim. Though history tells us this distinctive and breathtaking geological formation of thousands of basalt columns was created by volcanic activity millions of years ago, legend tells us otherwise.
            Walk in the footsteps of Oscar Wilde or James Joyce, visit Dublin’s famous Abbey Theater founded by W. B. Yeats, or stop by Trinity College to view the Book of Kells. Drive along the Wild Atlantic Way, the world’s longest defined coastal touring route, spanning from Co. Donegal down to Kinsale, Co. Cork. Visit the local markets along the route to meet the artisan producers. Experience the majestic coastal vistas from the Cliffs of Moher that rise 700 feet from the sea in Co. Clare. For the adventurous at heart take a boat ride to Skellig Michael’s monastic ruins founded in the 6th century and located just off the coast of Kerry. George Bernard Shaw commented that it was an
“incredible, impossible, mad place . . . part of our dream world.”
            All of these sites are inviting. But there is another lure. There has been a culinary renaissance in Ireland. Without doubt, Ireland today is a food-lover’s choice. Artisan food-producers and chefs concentrate on fresh, local, seasonal produce offering an enticing contemporary taste.
            The top chefs included in this book—Darina Allen, Martin Bealin, Derry Clarke, Ultan Cooke, Kevin Dundon, Catherine Fulvio, Neven Maguire, Noel McMeel, Ian Orr, and Tim O’Sullivan—are great ambassadors for Ireland. They take pride in sourcing the best local, seasonal produce and preparing it with creative inventiveness. Many of these chefs trained in Ireland, extended their training far from home, and brought that experience back to the island of Ireland.
            Let this book whet your appetite to come and experience the island and its exciting food first hand.
